Change the light good vehicle speed restriction laws for dual carriageways
I would like the government to consider increasing the speed limit for light goods vehicles under 3.5 tonnes to the same as motorway limits.
Change light good vehicle laws on dual carriageway to the same laws that apply on a motorway.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
There aren't specific speed limits for goods vehicles under 3.5 tonnes. Speed limits vary depending on whether a vehicle weighs more or less than 7.5 tonnes.
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to make the speed limit for good vehicles under 7.5 tonnes the same for dual carriageways and motorways. We could also accept a petition calling on the Government to set speed limits for goods vehicles weighing under 3.5 tonnes, but it would need to be clear what you want these to be set at.
